Best Buddies is a fantastic program that Caring Cats are involved in. It connects students that have a disability with students that do not have a disability and lifelong friendships are formed. On October 13th we will have a “MATCH PARTY” to let members know who will become their forever friend during 4th period. Any teacher or administrator is invited to attend! Prepare to be amazed and you might want to bring a Kleenex – it’s a very special event! TEACHERS – let us know if you have a student that could benefit from having a friend to hang out with. Contact Kylee French (Best Buddies President), Mrs. Daniels in room 113 or Mrs. Bell in room 258 for more information.
